Thing To Do With Your Kids

We used to play Toss Across all the time when we were little. Except we did not use the playing board. We just flipped a picnic table bench on its side at both ends of our basement and fired the bean bags at each other until someone got hit in the face and run upstairs crying, or we broke something.

I also have 4 year old twins. I bought them a cheap little camping set at Target last year with a small tent and sleeping bags. We set it up in the downstairs or in the sunroom and have sleepovers too. They love it. We watch some disney movie eat popcorn and sleep in the tent.

Ya know what is great with kids... especially when they get a bit older.. cooking or baking... Moms not allowed... you'll laugh like hell... there will be shit everywhere... "don't have this.. let's try that".. and you'll laugh some more... I can't cook much... but this is fun stuff... and you can do this for years...

I don't like to wrestle my first baby boy any more... He's 22.. over 6 ft and 200+... so he hurts... and he doesn't call his fouls in basketball... I don't foul.. no Dads foul...

When my youngest was 5-8, Indian Guide trips were immense fun... sure builds a trust... had good buddies who were real outdoorsmen and their boys... those are lifetime memories..

my son (5) and i have a million games....

but roughhousing is the best...our favorite since he was two is using a bouncy ball....we sit and bounce the ball against the wall we are facing and let it fly over our heads....first one to get the ball wins....with rough play/wrestling it can take five minutes to get the ball sometimes...

best memories in life....

I'll declare "Fumble" and my 3 year old son will go after the ball, pick it up and run around then, I'll tackle him - you know, lift him up, spin him around and such. Sometimes, I'll just hang on to his leg, with the ball just out of reach. He's pretty good about getting out of most "holds" as it were. Then, I'll get the ball sometimes, and he'll try tackling me, Usually, I'll let him hit me as hard as he can, lift him off the ground as I fall backwards, and he thinks he's knocked me over. It's really quite amusing watching him run with the ball, it's about as big as his whole upper body.

I'm hip. Really no greater thing in life, if you ask me. I'd rather watch my kids smiling and having fun than to smile and have fun myself.

The second was for two human players and one 90lb. formally trained German Shepherd, one of whom must have complete control over the dog. The game was normally played indoors. The player with control of the dog would secure the animal while allowing it to see the other player sprint away to another part of the house. Once the latter player had himself sufficiently hidden, the other player would release the dog. The game was over when the dog found the hidden player.

Enjoy!

Depending on the dog, that could be when the game really starts.
